    If your UC includes the child element for her and she finishes full time education then you will need to report the changes.

    If your UC includes help with the rent and she’s under 21 there will be no non dependent deductions. 

    If she’s 18 or over and your child element is ends then you will need to report the changes to your local authority for council tax reduction if you’re claiming this.
